Looking for epic space operas (lemmy.ml)

I really enjoyed The Hyperion Cantos, and the first few Dune books I read a long time ago (may reread these now). Can anyone recommend some other books (or series) along these lines? Huge stories on an epic scale, space battles, cool future tech, etc.

I really enjoyed Peter Hamilton's Commonwealth Saga (Pandora's Star/Judas Unchained) + The Void Trilogy which is in the same universe as the Commonwealth Saga books and features some of the same characters.

I second this. Hamilton often uses similar technology and themes and this is my favourite version of his take on the future of humanity. Definitely epic
